Tennessee is in the AFC South, so they'd play the AFC championship against the Patriots. The Titans are looking pretty sharp; they're looking even better than their 1999 season when the Rams' Mike Jones tackled Kevin Dyson 1 yard short of the goal line to prevent the Titans from tying the score on the final play of the Super Bowl.

Fair disclosure: in any game versus the Patriots, I have to pick the other team, regardless of credentials -- there's still a lot of catching up that karma needs to do for that team, each participant individually and as a team.

At this point, my wife's Colts are looking to be the wild card spoiler of the AFC unless Tennessee suddenly self-destructs and loses 4 games.
